Marine Lake Events Centre Hoarding Project
Organised by Sefton Council, the Southport Learning Partnership and supported by the wider project team, G&T took part in the Marine Lake Events Centre (MLEC) initial Hoarding event aimed at inspiring and engaging with local young people 小黄鸭视频 opportunities for future careers and to create some designs to be placed on the safety hoardings around the project site.
Over 100 pupils from both primary and secondary schools in the Sefton Borough were invited to put their creative minds to paper, with winning designs set to decorate the project hoardings on Southport Promenade. The children were tasked to provide designs for the hoardings based on things they loved 小黄鸭视频 Southport, roles in construction and nature in Southport.
Representatives from AFL Architecture and Gardiner & Theobald supported the 1-day event to inspire the local school children, who Sefton Council hope will be beneficiaries from the MLEC project once completed.
